The Mugly Truth Podcast

Kris and Kym talk about the weird and not-so-weird phobias they have had since childhood, and discover the many phobias out there and how NOT to pronounce any of them correctly.

Growing up from our 20s to our 40s and how our perspectives and perceptions have changed. It seems like what others learned in kindergarten, we're just now getting a grip on but the lessons from our exploits yielded some pretty good wisdom.

We're Kris and Kym, lifelong friends looking over our shoulders at the lives that shaped us, sharing the experiences that brought us to who we are at this very moment. We're hard-working gals with day jobs and kids. We experienced totally different life-paths, share a quirky sense of humor, and infuse our stories with some pretty colorful language.

Kris and Kym fuel up with coffee to talk about how technology has influenced their lives from the 70s (cassettes, mix tapes, recording tv and radio shows, Sony Walkman, disco, rabbit ear antennas, MTV, and changing channels the old fashioned way) through to the present day (viral videos, YouTube, Snapchat, Instagram and Twitter, moms and smartphones, teenagers and their social media, Netflix, Uber Air, self driving cars, tech spies, and The Chunnel).
